I'm with you! The Johan de Konig engine in CM6000 and the King2.1 in TASC BASE 2.0, were the only one's to solve this Shirov nonsense positon for example, 6r1/2rp1kpp/2qQp3/p3Pp1P/1pP2P2/1P2KP2/P5R1/6R1 w - - 0 1 in just 2 seconds to find the mate in 15. Certainly for tactics, this program has a suburb search algorithim. I'm not too caught up in which programs are better than which other programs, and it may well be true that some of them will 'beat up' CM6000 at certain time controls, but for the price, the style of play, and just pure fun of the program, it is excellent. And if you are looking to play/analyse positions in an all-tactical way, than this is the kind of program to use. mrslug - the inkompetent chess software addict!
